Knights had lots of rules. They varied with the laws of the land, and they varied with cultural rules, and they varied according to whether the knights were members of orders or not, and if they were members of orders, they varied by order.
Just to give an idea, the knights of the order we commonly call the knights Templar, were not allowed to have any money; they had to go to church regularly, meaning several times every day; they could not marry or have girlfriends; they had to obey any order given by their masters; and they had to sleep in their armor so they were always prepared for battle instantly. Pretty dreadful sounding, isn't it?
On the other hand, some people became knights just because some king liked them, and they really did not have to do anything but obey the laws of the country and obey the king.
Some knights, but by no means all, felt bound by the rules of chivalry. This could have meant they were bound by the rules of the virtues of knights, honor, and courtly love, which is kind of hard to explain, but meant a sort of passionate love, but without the passion.
Yes, knights had rules, and some were rather weird rules. I have attached a couple links below.
